I have it in nr 11 which is a very pretty red. I love it! I don't usually wear anything on my fingernails since it doesn't stay on longer than 2days, but this one stays about 4-5 days! I love the brush. It helps so much with the application, getting it even and not spilling over onto my finger. Also, I love the gel texture! It looks so professional. Will defenitely go pick up some more colours soon!

I have this in 'bleu water', a light blue colour.

The brush is really easy to use and the formula is a good texture. I used two coats and it looked nice and opaque. The staying power was fairly decent so I was quite impressed.

The only thing I'm not sure about is if I'll wear the colour much. I'm not sure if it suits me or not. I might have a look at other colours in the range though, because I think they're good value.

The brush is fantastic - depending on the pressure you apply it can be wider to the point of covering your whole nail. Very cool. The pigmentation is great - awesome coverage in 2 coats. The color looks black in indoor lighting but has nice crispyness to it. In the light all the purple shimmer comes to play and looks gorgeous. It takes long to dry - even after drying it for most of the day -its very easy to nick it, it is dry to touch but not dry enough..It is very expensive for the amount you get so I wouldn't buy this again but it was great fun to try because of the unique brush.

Great nail polish so far.
I bought it in a dark grey, a color which isnt easy to find here.
Its a very nice colour, it has a tiny bit of sparkle in it and it has a medium glossy finish. Personally I think it would really rock if they had it in a mat finish too, but this one is really nice.

The 'special' thing about this product is the brush, its kind of huge and u can polish your nails with one stroke (so it claims).
I need only one stroke, but for my nails on tyhe thumbs i need two.
Its a very nice polish when you're in a hurry or if u are clumpsy.

I was a bit suprised that it dries really fast, so thats a big plus for me.
The staying power is normal, it stays on for like three-four days, and then it starts to chip.
The price is good, so overall a really nice polish, I am planning to buy another one in another color.

I got this in shade 29- a pale pink.
I love it!
The bottle looks so fancy and I especially like that the elongated top is in a matching shade to the colour of the varnish,
I also really like the shape of the brush.
This varnish dries very quickly and I only needed one coat!
The only reason I didn't give this product full marks was because there isn't a huge range of shades.
There's only the standard pinks and reds- maybe the odd navy- I like wild colours for my nails- orange, lime green, yellow (I bought this pale pink for work).

Love the way the nail polish container has been styled.
I have it in number 14.Red.
It has awesome staying power!
I wore it for 3 days,went to the pool for 2 days and it was still intact. The only reason i took it off was because i don't like wearing nail polish too long on my nails. That is 3 days max.
Price is average but i'll definitely recommend this,as well as any other Bourjois products :)

I received this nail polish as a gift. Mine is Destination Tropics. It's towards cyan like.(I will try and add a picture). I'm pretty satisfied with it even though I have better nail polishes. One thing I really love about this nail polish is the angle brush. It really helps you cover the whole thing and for me in less than a second. I love the color, it's pretty unusual and it makes it pop. I always prefer nail polishes that pop. It has a bit of shimmer in it that goes towards gold but it's really nice.
One thing I seriously don't like about it but it's not such a major problem is that I need to wait for too long to dry. It's silly. Maybe it's because I use 2 layers? If I let one layer it's too transparent. Well for the color is totally worth it. It chips pretty fast though and I don't do much housework, but overall I'm pleased with it cause I'm not that kind of person that stays on with chipped nail polish. When the nail polish chips I just take it off.
I'm thinking of getting the other colors too.

I was immediately drawn to this nail polish for the promise it offered - fast drying nail polish that can be applied with minimal strokes because of the style of the brush. Could it really be the polish that solved all of my cackhanded nail polish application woes?
The answer is yes and no. It doesn't apply perfectly in one stroke but you could get it in two or three without a fuss, which is good since you need to consider your thumb and your pinky. It's defintely a fast dryer if you don't paint it in one big glob but keep the coat fairly thin, which is easy with the convenient brush.
But my main woe? It doesn't come in enough colours!!! I tried the clear and a very pale pink but I didn't really like how the pink one is too translucent yet glittery. So while I'll buy again, I'm sticking to the clear.
